DIY Picture Dictionary

There is a word for everything you see and do every day. Picture dictionaries are fine, but the things you see and touch everyday are your world, and they are the things you should be able to name and talk about.Look at yourself. What are you wearing?I have on blue jeans and a t-shirt today. When I go to work I still wear blue jeans, but I put on a button down collared shirt. I’m starting to wear socks every day because it is getting cold outside.I don’t use a wallet, so I always have some paper money and a credit card in my pocket.I have a wedding ring on my finger and a bracelet I bought in Nepal 30 years ago on my wrist. When I wrote this I was holding a pen in my hand.

That’s a lot better than a picture dictionary, isn’t it?
